My gynaecologist specialises in Fertility. Last year, he diagnosed me with PCOS & said that I should just diet and exercise until I lose the weight. LOL.

Well I'm tired of spending 10 hours in the gym and 2 days on the golf course every week and not seeing results. I'm tired of having to go on 500 calorie diets to even see myself lose 1 kilogram that month.

What can I say to have him actually prescribe me SOMETHING?

There's diabetes in my family and every woman on my father's side of the family clearly has my hormonal body type.

What do you recommend I should ask for and what tips can you give me to make him take the right moves.
